What are you GAS-ing for?

[Cadorman]

I was kind of toying with the idea of getting a nicer Jackson since my cheap one plays so dang nice, or building an even nicer one from Warmoth parts and then I arrived here at the cabin today and got to spend a few minutes with my '18 SG Standard. I got over that GAS real quick. Still, I don't think I can ever be done until I get a Les Paul Custom in tuxedo. I've wanted one since the 1980's and the feeling just never goes away.

I get the Jackson comment. I really like mine, and it’s a cheap one, too.

@eSGEe make the report button go away. I am pretty sure we can self police here. One of the few places in the universe that can.

I believe this button has been used to report spammers and alert us to ban them.

Well, if you see one from me it will most likely be a mistake with my wandering digits. They have always had a tendency to try to get me in trouble.

If I see one from you, I'll think your cat walked on your phone

I’ve responded once already, but I’ve pondered the question some more.

Of course, as always, I reserve the right to be fickle and change my mind at any time!

Just as every single member of this community should, smitty!! Long live enabling!!

You and me both. I’ve fat fingered the report button more than once. So far I’ve always caught myself before I actually report someone.

You could always “Les Paulize” your Jackson. That’s what I did with mine.

I just happen to have step-by-step instructions handy!

Possible Upcoming Jackson Mods

So, my preferred control layout and function for an H-H pickup guitar is the Les Paul-style layout. However, my Jackson has a different control layout with a single volume and tone control, instead of a separate control for each pickup. I also prefer the pickup switch in the upper bout. For...

Holy carp! After 8 pages I couldn't remember which thread I got there from. I really like what you did there being kind of a Gibson conoseur myself. The stock volume knob is definitely in my way. And I would have to disassemble my pickups and convert them to 4 wire to do the split coils thing. Of course, my problem is the tools that I would need cost as much as a pro model Jackson!

Yes.

I have to say Don isn't the only bastard here.


That's right. I got a piece of African Mahogany and a piece of Birdseye Maple at Rockler today. Working on dye colors for a new Warmoth build. Bastards.

Oh, and I picked this up today over at my local store Lavonne's. FYI they have quite a few vintage Gibsons. I saw one of those funky Flying V 's today like @SG John has.
